We all love the grape-growing, crushing, fermenting time especially when new releases of wines are shared, but what happens during the other months? Let’s not forget the work to be done by people who are pruning the vines, cutting the grass and growth between each row of vines, and all the other projects needed for a successful harvest.

What I discovered during this quiet time is an opportunity to talk with more employees about their work at the vineyard and the tasting room; learning more each day about the wine-making process; appreciative of everyone’s work!
